Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Seeing the recent activity in this thread, I figured I'd drop in to my local Dollar Tree since I happened to be nearby. For the first time ever, they had a DVD display almost front and center as you came into the store. It wasn't very full, so perhaps there was some decent stuff there at one point. I only saw 5 different titles (all mentioned previously) with multiple copies of each. Nothing I was interested in. I was thankful there wasn't anything I had purchased previously for more than $1. :D

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

I must have missed these DVDs when I was in there the other day, but I found them today. I picked up:

The Net 2.0
The Great Debaters
Slipstream
American Gun
Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker
The Company

I'm glad I never found The Company at Big Lots and also passed on Slipstream there as well because paying $1 for each is better than $3 each.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

I purchased the following titles at a Dollar Tree in Orlando ( Waterford Lakes Town Center - at Alafya Trail ).... half of the display is already gone... hoping they'll get more soon....

Truth Or Consequences N.M. ( Kiefer Sutherland - FULLscreen - rated R )

Lies & Alibis ( Rebecca Romijn - WIDEscreen AND FULLscreen - rated R )

Hannah Takes The Stairs ( Greta Gerwig - WIDEscreen - NOT rated )

Silver City ( John Sayles, Maria Bello, Thora Birch - WIDEscreen - rated R )

The Matador ( Pierce Brosnan, Hope Davis, Greg kinnear - FULLscreen - rated R )

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

...a few others that were put ot that were different than the last time I was there:

* Beautiful, Ohio
* Depth Charge
* School for Scoundrels (Full-screen)
* Derailed (Full-screen & Unrated)

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

jbeeching,

Thanks for mentioning Beautiful, Ohio. I hadn't seen anything else of interest, but that's definitely a title that I've been looking for at $5-$6 or less (clearly this qualifies).

After reading your post, I checked out 3 stores, but found practically nothing. One store had 0 DVDs, another had only Slipstream and the third had Silver City & Lies & Alibis.

But everything turned out well anyway as I spotted a HC book that I had been looking to pick up. I had ordered it from Deep Discount for $7.99, but they canceled it and I was thinking that I'd have to buy it as a Bargain Book from Amazon for $10.38, but this one was in fair shape, and I'm quite pleased to have it for $1.09.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

I would have posted this earlier but my internet was out since early Friday.

Went there a second time this week and they put out some more new titles.

Since it's been a few days I have forgotten some titles, so here is what I can remember.
The Great Debaters (with Denzel Washington) 2- disc set, some with slip-covers
London
The Storm (I think this is that Sci-Fi channel made for tv movie with Luke Perry

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Was happy to find 1408 tonight. Awesome buy for a dollar.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Lonesome Jim is so underrated.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Spotted in Clifton NJ:
"Tantrums And Tiaras" (Elton John)
"The Groomsmen" (Edward Burns)

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

No DVDs for me, but I got a "Jupiter Jack" for $1.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

A couple of Echo Bridge DVDs. MEGAFAULT & a double feature of DEAD MAN (one of my all-time favorites) + some shitty looking movie I don't remember.

And SILVER CITY.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

The movie with DEAD MAN is TEXAS RANGERS and the ECHO BRIDGE DVD of DEAD MAN is non-anamorphic. Either seek out the old Miramax DVD or the Echo Bridge Blu-Ray, which is pretty good.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Fortunately, the old Miramax Dead Man is one of the first DVDs I ever bought. :)

So what kind of pair up is that anyway? Is Texas Rangers supposed to appeal to the Jim Jarmusch crowd? Yeesh. Artisan probably treated Ghost Dog with more dignity.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

I've bought a lot of DVD's at the Dollar Tree in Flourtown PA.

It's hit or miss.Sometimes they have a lot,sometimes nothing.They used to have a lot of the cardboard envelope public domain titles(I bought a lot of those)but nowdays when they have DVD's they are major studio & some indie titles.

Here's a list of some of what I found.
Konga
Attack of the Puppet People
Ballad of Jack &Rose
Standing in the Shadows of Motown(DVD or VHS)
Scary Movie 4
Barbershop 2
Prick up your Ears
Innocent Voices.
All these were shrinkwrapped.Most had a slash through the UPC code.I bought a lot more of these but I can't remember the titles off hand.I also found CD's by Bjork,Barenaked Ladies,Tift Merritt & Guns & Roses Chinese Democracy.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Guess it's about time to check out the local Dollar Tree. Nice finds.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

I saw both 1 Disk and 2 Disk of Great Debaters. I almost got the 1 Disk before noticing the 2 Disk... so if anyone is interested in it.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

These will be tough to get because it takes just one person interested in DVDs to blow through a whole store's stock.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Shit... Party of Five & Ned and Stacey for $1 each. I'd bought those for extra copies for friends especially Ned and Stacey. Awesome find! :up:

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
 

Perkinsun which store in ca had those .Also was there more of the titles you got.
